Healing Quotes

    “By throwing yourself into emotions, by allowing yourself to dive in, all the way, over your head even, you experience them fully and completely. You know what pain is. You know what love is. You know what grief is. And only then can you say, ‘All right. I have experienced that emotion. I recognize that emotion. Now I need to detach from that emotion for a moment.'”

    Morrie Schwartz, via Tuesdays With Morrie (Page 104)

      “how to improve your life:

      1. make self-love a top priority

      2. learn a self-healing technique

      3. create space for daily healing

      4. know that everything changes

      5. be kind, loving, and honest to all”

      Yung Pueblo, Inward (Page 172)

        “Many of our vices exist only because they are supported by other vices; therefore, if we destroy our major vices, many others will disappear at once, in the same way as branches fall when you cut the trunk of a tree.”

        Blaise Pascal, via A Calendar of Wisdom (Page 114)

          “to expect another to resolve all of our issues and give us the happiness we desire is to expect to see the sunrise without opening our own eyes. it is to ask a river to give us nourishment without dipping our own hands into the water. another cannot answer a riddle that was only ever meant for our own minds to solve. the universe seeks to enlighten and empower us, thus it is only rational that we are our own greatest healers.”

          Yung Pueblo, Inward (Page 159)

            “self-love

            is creating space

            in your life to heal

            your body and mind

            Yung Pueblo, Inward (Page 143)

              “as it works for the individual, it also works for the collective of humanity—we can’t heal what is ignored, nor can we live happily and freely if we continue running away from our own darkness.”

              Yung Pueblo, Inward (Page 121)

                “healing ourselves isn’t about constantly feeling bliss; being attached to bliss is a bondage of its own. trying to force ourselves to be happy is counterproductive, because it suppresses the sometimes tough reality of the moment, pushing it back within the depths of our being, instead of allowing it to arise and release.”

                Yung Pueblo, Inward (Page 81)

                  “There is great power in honoring the reality of our current emotions—not feeding them or making them worse but simply recognizing that this is what has arisen in this present moment and that this will also change. When we create this space within ourselves—a space of calmness that is undisturbed by the storm—the storm tends to pass more quickly.”

                  Yung Pueblo, Inward (Page 81)

                    “a hero

                    is one who heals

                    their own wounds

                    and then shows others

                    how to do the same”

                    ~ Yung Pueblo, Inward (Page 74)

                      when we disconnect
                      from our pain
                      we stop growing
                      
                      when we are dominated
                      by our pain
                      we stop growing
                      
                      freedom is observing our pain
                      letting it go
                      and moving forward
                      
                      (middle path)
                      
                      ~ Yung Pueblo, Inward (Page 11)
